Nyx is all wild-eyed fury and for the briefest of moments he very nearly puts a blade in Squall for trying to stop him before he's really registered who is even there. Squall's hands on him may stop him from warping again immediately but even Squall is not enough to stop his feet. He snatches one of Squall's hands, squeezing just a little too tight even as he brushes his lips across the brunet's knuckles while pulling it away. Sidestepping to walk past him but holding onto him enough to make it clear that he wants Squall to follow on his other side.
His King and his love, both touched so intimately by her. Her power, her compassion, her faith in the Future.
"The Imperial scum that proposed the treaty. That planned the whole fucking thing." He's nearly shouting again by the end of it, shaking with rage and pain. "After everything we did to protect the future, that slimy fucking COWARD is here. With her blood on his hands. The blood of all of Insomnia."
Finally, his steps falter for the briefest of moments, gaze flicking to Squall, actually seeing him for perhaps the first time. There's tears on those dark lashes, pain and grief beneath the roiling fury. But he is prepared to bring the full wrath of Lucis, of Eos, of all the Peoples that have suffered at the Empire's hands to bear on this one man, consequences be damned.
